Like many couples during the pandemic, Gwen (not her real name for privacy reasons) and her husband were looking for a place that was bigger than their previous home.
Because of this, they are looking for resale used HDBs where the floor area is usually larger than newly built ones.
Size requirements aside, it should be located closer to the west since that’s where the families of the two of them are.
The place also needs to be within walking distance of the train station, and close to a park or park link because they have a dog.
Also, one of the windows must be as high as the ceiling, or at least three-quarters. This is because they used to have a balcony in their first home, and it was their dog’s favorite hangout spot.
Their home buying journey ended with a resale of HDB which was completed in 1998
